When this song went number one on the charts I was thinking the entire world is changing and I was playing with a teletype in High School and the teacher kept telling us we better learn computers because the future is going to be nothing but computers let alone I never seen one so I don't what they look like because Bill gates had not invented it yet, and the teacher was right.

[cindyflores3333]

i'll never ever stop listening to this

[avfvideos]

Don't get no better than this .....where did this music go.



[patcdtp]

[DYNOE1r]

Big L - How Will I Make It

[mechyganesh]

I  heard this song in Cuba in 1970s I was so young and this music is adorable !!! I'm remember past time

[MRBOCHIEDA2ND]

11 people don't know real music when they hear it or they must be deaf or out of touch of those times...Get some history in ya life...this kind of music paved the way for other greats.Most of today's music doesn't have this substance...

[lovethoseoldies1]

By far one of the best songs ever written. I have such great memories of just walking in the rain and singing this song after my boyfriend stepped out on me. Hey it's ok we were just kids. No matter, life turned out so much better than if I spend the rest of it with him. But this is such a great song!!!!

[tylerst252]

this song i sing to my wife

[MrDJBobbyJ]

wow

[shortbuild]

i cant say in words what this song means to me cuz so many feelings come to mind when i hear this song and so many feelings!!!!!!!!

[crazycas2260]

Wow what great times gone but never forgotten

[faith2xxx]

Just saw them on a vintage episode of Soul Train a couple of days ago singing this. RIP Don Cornelius!

[calibostunna22]

@faith2xxx yupp RIP Godfather Of SoulTrain Don Cornelius

[lovethoseoldies1]

[comando0220]

Oww, mercy!! Break it on down, ...cause I-I-I-I don't want you to see me cry! ...stuff grown folks 'got' to go through. It's not crazy.

[Diciasette11]

@funkmex75, ok, Peace out! lol

[Diciasette11]

@funkmex75, that's on my PROFILE, not every song I comment about!! Can't you understand the difference??? My question is why you keep arguing with a BLACK woman about this?? I'm a hypocrite? You have a nerve! First you call yourself "white folks", then admit you're Italian AND Mexican! lol Ok, whatever! You don't now what Asian music is? I'm not surprised! LMAO

[funkmex75]

@Diciasette11 Okay I'm biracial.....LOL

[TheEacassimiro]

Delícia de música!!!...Volto no tempo!!!

[blackprix]

How can you not put this at the top of the best of the 70's R & B juggernaut!!!! 70's R & B HAS NO COMPETITION ....

[josecahouse]

GZA - Cold World

[Diciasette11]

@funkmex75, no it doesn't make me "feel better"...why should it? WHO CARES? Why do you have to say what race you are because you like black music?? If I like a song by someone white, I don't get on here and say I'm black, I just say I like the song! Good music is good music, it has no color!! smh .

[funkmex75]

@Diciasette11 so why do you have in your profile that you are a black female from southern california who likes asian music (whatever that is) and asian men ? hypocritical don't you think ?????

[SASSYBABY411]

@Diciasette11 one 1thousnd percent with you and I'm black good music is good music no matter what color you are. Thank you very much!!!

[victron6]

@Diciasette11 ~Nicely said...Some folks who claim to enjoy "Good" music just don't get it...MUSIC IS UNIVERSAL!!

[Diciasette11]

@BlacknesUnforgiveable, that's right! WTH trying to tell somebody what to make?? If u don't like today's r&b, don't listen to it! Besides, how did someone named "funkMEX" identify as "white folks"?? smh

[funkmex75]

@Diciasette11 because i'm mixed with mexican and italian. so technically i'm mexican and white. does that make you feel better ?

[KrazeDSk5150]

one of the best songs way better than whats played now a days

[karessmusic]

[curtisjones400]

[Midastouch1953]

@oJAYarista F*CK the blunt........get a girl, get a life, and you won't need drugs.......trust me, been there, done that!

[berkleygirl49]

love this song

[commonman80]

When you actually had to know how to sing and/or play an Instrument before you were allowed on stage.

Today, you just have to LOOK like your singing, and the sound filters and lights will do the rest.

[MrJlross]

This music is the real deal, They dont make music like this anymore1

[chewyluigi]

The guitar riff sounds like the beginning of Madlib's / Madvillian's America's Most blunted. Only beatheads would understand this!! this is a great song!

[BIGJENKS63]

THESE WERE THE REAL SONGS OF OUR ERA! CLEAN LYRICS, SOULFUL TUNES, AND MADE U WANNA LOVE EVERYONE!

[HeavenMZ128]

it never fails this song gives me a frog in my throught!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zickie2000]

Soul and R&B music from like 1965-1985 for me was the "bomb." Or as more commonly said, was "what's up!! Best music ever produced from Motown thru the 70's and 80's. I could be here for months thinking of all the talent and memories a song like this has for me. God Bless all of you for sharing your talent!!

[bumperin]

Get the buckets..it's raining out.....I'm not crying!

[faith2xxx]

Why, oh WHY can't music like this be still around?

[MrJlross]

@faith2xxx - because those people are not mature that produce or sing today it all about selfishness

[JET997u]

@faith2xxxIn part, because years ago corporate America bought up all the radio stations and insisted they play the same stuff over and over. Companies like Clear Channel removed the independent stations that played music like this.  Another reason is the mood of the country has changed: everyone is angry now and therefore rap is big.

[faith2xxx]

@JET997u You are so correct, and not to mention that same corporate America is why we're being constantly bombarded by over-sexed, useless music featuring talentless 'artists.' This is why I listen to my iPod while driving!

[URBANLAKEMUSIC]
